Hi all, getting ready to go out and get a nic card for os/2 so I can hook up my dsl connection and get away from using windows for internet access. I wonder if you gents would be so kind as to give me some recommendations for specific cards to look at or in lieu of this a nice list of nics with good os/2 support.

kind regards,arr

There is actually a wide range of NIC that you're able to use under os2. I've used during many years 3C905 cards from 3Com. On my fileserver I'm using a Intel onboard NIC that works very well. RealTek is another brand that I've used, works fine but might be a card that I would avoid if I could. So finding a NIC to use for OS2 is really easy. Wlan card might be a bit harder to find, well since the drivers available are other private via software choice or are in beta and not available....

WLAN drivers are in beta and are available for beta testers http://www.os2warp.be/wifi/. A login and password must be requested prior to accessing the drivers.
